IT is exceedingly doubtful whether
Foraker has found, or will find, in the
field Of politics the soothing and salutary
distraction of mind which he seemed to
need when he bade adieu to the BRAIN
jacking and body-exhausting duties OF a
judicial career. Perhaps the farmers Of
Ohio, in the generosity of their hearts
and out OF gratitude for his effort to
"even up" their taxes by increasing the
valuation Of their farms, will permit him
to retire at the close OF the present year
and to seek needed refreshment in those
peaceful pastoral avocations in which,
four years ago, he used to boast himself
so highly accomplished. AS a dairy
maid he might be success, if he could
resist the temptation to put his foot into
the milk.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1887-09-17

THERE must be revaluation OF real
estate at once, says ]. B. Foraker. We
can not wait for the legally appointed
time in 1890. The farmers don't pay
taxes enough. We must get after them
at once, and that not in the ordinary way.
When the appraisers are elected from
among the farmers themselves there is q
mutual desire and conspiracy to keep
down the valuation. We must have a
State commissioner appointed, who will
value all property irrespective of local
judgment as to it's worth. Foraker feels
sure that the Legislature will give him
the power to appoint State Board of
Equalization, and enact that all property
shall be revalued now, he can seven it
up on the farmers" For particulars see
his special Message.

The Campaign Started.

On last Saturday the Democratic
Central Committee met in the
Court room and a call of roll show
ing a quorum present, 1t procee ded
to organize by the appointment OF
j. b. Riason, of Perry Tp., Chair
man and w. T.. Engle, of Falls,
Secretary. The Committee then
appointed an executive Committee
as follows;
John $. Friesner, ID. w. Wright,
II. l.. Wright, V. G. Lowery, Abel
Carpenter, John Hansel and A. j.
Burgess. The books of last years
Committee were audited and found
correct. No other or further busi-
ness was transacted. On Wednes-
day the Executive Committee met
and organized by the election of its
officers as follows: Chairman Hon.
John S. Friesner; Secy, V. G..
Lowery; Treas, ID. w. Wright. The
Committee propose to at once en-
ter into an active Campaign. This
is as it should be, and we hope to
assist the committee in making
the Democratic Majority of Hook
ing, for the whole ticket, fully
eight hundred in spite Of the Re-
publican "Annex" known as the
Prohibition Party.

AMONG the doubtful winds that were
heard in the land when Cleveland was
elected was one to- the effect that DEM
ocratic administration would have dis
astrous effect on the national banking
interest. What are the facts Comptrol-
Ter Trenholm says:
"From the 4th OF March, 1885," ITO the
LIST of August, there have been organized
450 new national banks, OF which the very
great majority have been established in
those parts of the country in which the
national banking system had not been
popular under earlier administrations;
while within the last six months there
have been more new banks formed in
the large cities than for several years
previously. From these facts it may be
inferred that at least no harm has come
to the national banking system in conss-
quence of the change of party in power
at Washington"

DURING Gov. Fosters administration,
he appointed two Democrats upon each
board of five Trustees of Benevolent In
stitutions, and Gov. Hoadly retained two
Republicans upon all such boards. This
arrangement, which it was supposed
would henceforth be the settled policy
OF both parties has been departed from
by Gov. Foraker, who has reduced the
Democratic representation upon most of
these boards to one member. The char
liable institutions of the state have be-
come under Foraker mere machines for
the furtherance of partisan schemes and
personal ends; and not even Repub-
lican could remain on any one of the
Boards unless he was willing to become
the mere tool of the governor the
mouthpiece of his wishes, and slavishly
subservient to his commands. Great is
Christian Charity, but still greater is
Foraker lin his own estimation).

That Resolution.

Craven w. Glove Is a statesman
and believes that every means
should be used to disseminate in
formation and knowing the OBJ
tuseness of the editor Of the Re
publican Gazette and their ability,
to remain in total ignorance of
passing events, made motion in
the Republican County Convention
on Saturday, which was un-
aminously carried, that COM
mite be appointed to inform the
Editor of the Rep. Ga=ette, that a
Republican Convention had been
held and a ticket nominated. The
committee must have performed
its duty, as we see that the R. q.
has published the ticket.

WHY all these capitalistic organizations
for the dissemination of high tariff liter
ature? Do they proceed upon the as
sumption that the workingman has not
sense enough to know when he is well
off? Why such desperate efforts to
persuade him that he is supremely
happy-he ought to know it without
having it dinned into his ears from morn
ing till night every day in the year.

high-tariif tomtoms and blowing your
protectionist bazoos, and let the "still
small voice" of the happy people be

THE Commercial Gazette is troubled in
its mind about certain employees Of For.
aker's Cincinnati Board of Public Affairs
being candidates for the Legislature. 1t
asks the question: care these people
attending to their business ?" Then the
question is answered with snapper
1--WE presume not, and IL is our opinion
there ought to be eight racancies." This is
case where distance lends enchantment
to the view, and another proof of how
peculiar Republican ideas OF official duty
and prosperity are. In Columbus, Gov
ernor Foraker can take the Commissioner
OF Railroads and Telegraphs, the State
Librarian, the Clerk of the Supreme
Court, and his own Private Secretary,
whose aggregate salaries (paid by the
state) are at least Sl2,lOO, and make
them members of the Republican Execu-
tive Committee and managers of his
gubernatorial campaign, and the Cincin-
natl Commercial Gazette does not say q
word. 1t never asks whether these Off
GERS are attending to their official busi-
ness, and would think it horrible to sug-
gest that a decent regard for official
morals would have compelled every one
of them either to decline to be Foraker's
political hacks at public expense, or to
resign the positions the duties OF which
they are now compelled to neglect.
Benny Foraker and Willie Bill Cappel-
Ter are fine exponents of civil service
morals but they will have to exert them
selves to keep up with the reckless po-
litical blatherskite of the Commercial Ga
sette, who one day commends Gnad-
vertently, no doubt) the Democratic Gin
cinnati Postmaster for having diminished
the expenses of his Office, notwithstand-
ing the large increase OF business, and
the next day howls with forty jackass
power; "Turn the Democratic lascals
out"

EVEN such a psrsistant and unscrupu.

EVEN such persistant and unscrupu-
lous bowler against everything Demo.
cratic as the Cincinnati Commercial.
Gazette is occasionally driven to admit
that all the ability to administer RESPONSE
Bile public Offices does not reside ex-
clusively with Republicans. It was con-
tinually boasting that the Cincinnati
Post-ofiice under Col. Whitfield was the
best managed Office in the country, and
suggested that 1t would certainly not
maintain Its reputation for efficiency
under the new Democratic incumbent.
This is one of the many instances when
the praises Of ones enemies are especially
significant Here is what the C.-G. now
says
Postmaster Riley yesterday completed
the report of the business of the Cincin-
natl Post-office for the fiscal year ending
June 30 last. 1t is Mr.. Riley's first re-
port, and gives an excellent account OF
his stewardship. 1t is, too, the first report
Of the business Of the post-o6ice submitted to
The public since 1881.
"The figures show that the business of
Cincinnati is increasing yearly, for no bet
ter barometer OF the state of business can
be found than post-oflice report. The
increase in the money-order business is
an encouraging feature OF the report.
The increase in the net revenue of the
Office is $2s,429.94. This increase in reue-
nue. Was attained auit,o,a a corresponding in
crease in erpenses, as might be expected.
AS a matter of fact there was adecrease of
one per cent. IN the erpenses Of the o6ice-a
very handsome erhibit."
And still the C.-G. will go on insisting
that the Democrats are running the
country.

The Republican party gave away the
rich public domain to corporations, syn
dicates and foreigners Cleveland is
forcing it back to tho people. The Re-
publicans created privileged classes and
iostered monopolies by their systems ol
taxation, whereby the rich are protected
and made richer and the poor kept poor
by being forced to pay taxes on what
they eat and wear, when the money is
not needed to pay expenses of the Gov
ernment. They strive by every means
IN their power to foster sectional hate,
thereby retarding the development OF a
Large portion OF our country and clogging
the wheel OF industry and thrift in the

THE humbug of civil service reform as
professed by the Democratic Administra
ton is being rapidly exposed. As pratic.
ed it is fraud.-Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette.
The kind of civil service reform which
Halstead loves with all his soul is that prac-
ticed by the notorious Republican Board
of Public Affairs in Cincinnati, which un-
blushingly resolved that the municipal
affairs of that city ought to be managed
in the interest of the Republican party,
and then removed every Democrat hold
ing position under the Board. This
rule works only one way.

THE IRON TRADE.

The state of the iron market at the
present time furnishes another proof
that Cleveland's clean and conservative
administration has created feeling of
security among business men that is
eminently favorable to trade. We are

the following synopsis of facts taken from
Its "Market Review" They relate
mainly to pig iron, and are grouped un-
der the names of the places whence the
reports come.

oovERNoR FoRAkER's spsEuA.

Governor FORAKER is, we believe, a
man of education, who was thought
worthy by an intelligent majority of tn,
citizens of Ohio to be the Governor of
the State. But does any intelligent man
in the country think that it is a decent
tring for the Governor of Ohio to say OF
the President of the United States upon
his prompt revocation of an order which
proved 20 be beyond his proper authori-
ty, that she guailed like whipped SPAN
lei before the storms of indignant pro-
tests that swept down upon him from
every loyal State?
